Yessir!! Yeah, as great as bike it is, it is heavy and would be hard to get in and out of an apartment or up stairs so a garage definitely would be ideal!!
Use an app to route out your path for the entire group. So no one gets lost or left behind. You can add stops as well. As long as everyone has the app too, should be good.
Great content. Truly an awesome bike. Plenty of torque which exactly what u need riding in NyC. It would be great if you can get an even exchange on your graffiti to an X👍
@@ErockRodz Absolutely! Every time I see you out on group rides I keep meaning to find out how and when they're organized. Figured it best I reach out directly.
Site list total weight as 120lbs . I do not buy any ride above around 85lbs total but the weight for the Graffiti X is spot on . Really like the battery pack is centered low . I have not seen even 1 proper hill test though . Important to see how it performs starting at the bottom of a hill 20% grade or so and see how it powered up a hill with no running start . With a direct drive an ebike needs a lot of power for low end torque . I used to own the onyx rcr at 155lbs and very high battery pack . Ended up having to sell it . Could not stand the high weight and high center of gravity .
another youtuber pointed out that the rear shocks are not in the best placements because its the same as the onyx and he's afraid, this bike might also have the same problem where the rear shock isnt in an ideal position so it can only travel so much. He confirmed this by showing some scenes from the youtube bike showcase lyric cycles had. Honestlly it's a tough choice between this and the brute from spark cycle works. The brute has a better controller I believe which is about a 150 amp controller so riding the thing at lower voltages will be far more efficient I guess, right? Looks wise though, this ebike looks miles better than the brute in my opinion haha
There’s a lot of things I worry about on this bike. Will it burn out? Will it be able to go up all the hills of SF and not overheat? I live in one of the hilliest areas in the city and at stop signs, this bike will need to be able to pull up 22% grade hills with no running start for me to like it. And the rear shocks worry me. I didn’t like my Onyx.
I guess I’m not stupid and not the only one that wears a full face motorcycle helmet instead of a bike helmet even though I get strange looks riding all the time from people with my e bikes I have
I do wear motorcycle gloves with knuckle protectors too I mean if you crash on an e bike going 25 to 30 mph your hands could get pretty fucked up but if your in a motorcycle gloves should be mandatory but I don’t understand why people on e bikes wear full face helmets but no gloves just confusing to me🤔
I think it depends on the bike and its speed capabilities as well. I always were a full face for rideouts. I will wear bike helmets if I am riding low speed locally.
Great seeing the Graffiti X in NYC... Thanks Erock for this video.
It was a fun ride! Thanks for watching!
Such an awesome bike! As soon as I find a garage to rent, I'm gonna get one

She knocked it out of the park. A game changer.
Agreed! 🤙

Hey Erock, when is the next group ride that you'll be attending in NYC?
I’ll have to check my schedule and find out! You planning on riding??

Erock, are you getting a batch 1 bike? I hope you put out videos immediately once you get yours.
I am batch one and praying no more delays! That is the plan!
love the blue helmet also
Great job
Appreciate it! 🙏
Does anyone know what motorcycle helmet she is wearing?
I wish i could afford one of theose..they probably 4k and up
